The paper introduces 2AM, a system that separates memory and action execution in long‑horizon robot manipulation. 2AM stores task memory exclusively in a multimodal Agent, while a single RGB‑based, stateless Action Model performs motion based on language and optional 2D hints. On the LIBERO‑Mem benchmark, 2AM achieves 76.3% average completion—over 61 points higher than the best baseline—demonstrating that agent‑side memory and precise steering of the Action Model can substantially improve performance.
The paper introduces 2AM, a system that keeps task memory solely within a multimodal Agent while using a single RGB‑based, stateless Action Model to execute motions. By compiling interaction history into subtask language and optional 2D grasp/place/move hints, the Agent steers the Action Model, which is trained to tolerate imperfect guidance through dropout, noise, and jitter. On the LIBERO‑Mem benchmark, 2AM achieves 76.3% average completion without depth, geometry, or planners, vastly outperforming the best baseline.

Mem-World introduces a memory‑augmented action‑conditioned world model for robot manipulation, featuring W‑VMem—a 4D wrist‑view‑centered surfel‑indexed memory that anchors historical observations to evolving surface elements. By explicitly modeling when and where scene elements are observed, the system retrieves geometry‑aware history frames during generation, providing informative, non‑redundant context for future action predictions. Experiments demonstrate that Mem‑World produces persistent rollouts, improves policy evaluation reliability (14.5 % higher Pearson correlation with real‑world performance), and boosts long‑horizon task success rates from 58 % to 72 % using synthetic data generation.
arXiv:2604. 18933v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Robotic manipulation tasks exhibit varying memory requirements, ranging from Markovian tasks that require no memory to non-Markovian tasks that demand in-context memorization of historical information within a single trial or in-context adaptation based on the outcomes of multiple past trials.

arXiv:2603. 24576v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Robots often observe information that determines a future action long before that action is executed.
The paper introduces Divide-and-Remember (D&R), a recursive memory method for vision-language-action (VLA) policies that optimises memory by maximizing the conditional mutual information between actions and memory given observations. D&R recursively divides the full history into top‑K selections over 2K tokens, using a shared lightweight selector across all recursion blocks to handle unbounded histories efficiently. Evaluated on the RoboMME benchmark of 16 long‑horizon manipulation tasks, D&R achieves state‑of‑the‑art success rates with consistent gains across all suites while using only 64 tokens, and similar improvements are observed in real‑robot experiments.
LT-Mem introduces a volatility‑aware memory evolution framework for lifelong scene understanding, combining spatially aligned instance‑level 3D perception with temporal reasoning. It uses a multi‑session SLAM backbone, a reasoning layer that scores evidence and selects memory actions, and a Tri‑Memory structure (Live, Delta, Meta) to preserve current states and event histories. The accompanying LT‑VQA dataset provides multi‑session recordings, persistent identity annotations, and temporal QA pairs, and experiments show LT‑Mem outperforms baselines while using far fewer tokens.
